American GI's must retake a barren hill in Korea that has been overrun by Communist troops. The ensuing battle becomes a meat grinder for American and Chinese alike. This story of a an actual battle is all grit.

I think one of the best war movies has got to be "Kelly's Heroes". Maybe not the most serious war movies but it always brings a smile to my face. Irish name with an Irish approach to war!
Gotta agree with stickytoffee, full metal jacket is one seriously good war film
"This is my rifle, this is my gun, one is for killing, the others for fun" classic
saving private ryan.....FUBAR
All the above choices are excellent, but A Bridge Too Far is mine..
